Microsoft Employs Pirates
- Thread starter The Wooster
- Start date
But if you consider Microsoft is made up of multiple Bender, it could explain why they are evil. (Bender been more evil then the Robot Devil =p)vrbtny said:
(Nothing against the company itself actually but they are still evil in my book for creating VB and its derivative)
There are plenty of modern day pirates at sea. Of course they don't pander the stereotype, but they do plunder.Sougo said:
I would have expected this naturally... Don't know why this is a shock.
Even if you work at a company you're not going to agree with everything, and you're in the dangerous position of knowing all the weaknesses in protection of the software but also being caught obviously.
Oh well time will tell if they get busted.

no one ever said you had to care about a company to work there, some times some people care only about getting paid, and couldn't care less about their place of works stance on anything.Kheapathic said:
doubly true when said company has their heads wedged firmly in their asses
Hell, I don't recognise any of the things it says I've apparently torrented (which I don't do anyway). I am unimpressed and also suspicious.lacktheknack said:
This really isn't the least bit shocking, surprising or, well, even news. Just let me get this straight. You're saying some people who know about technology use bit-torrent. Really? I bet next you'll tell me about the existence of corrupt politicians and white-furred bears of the Arctic that hunt seals under the ice! Oh the wonders will never cease!
You probably picked up a dynamic IP after the last owner torrented a bunch of stuff.Lord Mountbatten Reborn said:

I work for a software company that is in turn owned by a huge multinational. To me, my job isn't just a job. I love what I do and I love the company I do it for. But that doesn't stop me thinking the multinational that owns my company is a bunch of *censored just in case*. The unofficial policy of my company is to just ignore the more insane official policies of the multinational.
For example, I am supposedly banned from using dating sites for "security reasons". Without saying who I work for, I can tell you it's not bloody MI5!
ITT: a whole lot of people believing a random website and a forum post, lol.
Stay intelligent, people. Stay intelligent.

Hey, the RIAA may want to get rid of piracy, but damn they just found this new band, and they don't have the money right now so they'll just download the albums - and there's like 5 of them, right? That ain't cheap, man, - and they'll pay for them later, 'kay?
